Ex zones without cables
How do switches and sensors get their power and signals? In addition to the tried-and-tested cabled connections, process engineers are increasingly using cable-free, radio-controlled systems. Adaptation of this technology to the requirements of explosion protection has been a challenge for developers, but one which can now be considered met.
